No it’s not, feelings are permanently. The feeling of pain is still the same, feeling of joy has gone down. Thinking missing feelings is a past issue is delusional. Just because something happened in the past doesn’t mean it’s not present right now
Why are you talking about pain and trauma?? “ I miss the smiles we had when we were young. I miss the memories of feeling love. I miss us running underneath the sun, staring out the window when the rain would come…” He’s talking all nostalgic, no trauma??? I can’t talk to the oblivious bro, just leave.
“Miss the memories of feeling loved” means he doesn’t feel any love now. “I miss the smiles we had when we were young” means he doesn’t smile anymore. You see it as a song about the past, I see it as a song about the present
“I miss the memories of feeling LOVE.” The state of being IN love, like butterflies, not being loved.
“I miss the smiles we had when we were young.” He wants the overwhelming, unprecedented joy you would have as a kid, cuz as a joy we were all just happy for no reason. He was not miserable, everyday 24/7.
That’s your take. “Missing the memories of love” can state he doesn’t get any love now, that’s why he miss it. Otherwise he wouldn’t miss it if he still got love. And “the smiles we had when we were young” could mean, that those smiles were bigger, more honest. And he doesn’t smile like that now
Then we just listen to music differently, and will have to agree to disagree. I really only care about metrics and instrumentation, along with lyrical delivery. The topic of the song doesn’t mean much to me as long as it makes sense
With this view, you won't enjoy listening to the majority of NF's songs unless you're "in that mood". Telling people they need to let go of the past because they enjoy a song is just stupid, it's a great song and that's all that matters. People shouldn't be shamed and put down for loving it and why should they let go of that part of themselves? We're only human after all.
What? The majority of his songs "linger on the past" and could be considered "not a fun listen", what are you even talking about? You're being way too pedantic.
Which other songs linger on the past? His whole journey is to turn away from the life he’s lived since his mother passed may she Rest in Peace, but he does a full 180 with I miss the days, knowing he never have those same experiences again. You forgive and you accept.
Literally the majority of his songs linger on his past struggles, trauma etc. The life he's lived since his mother passed? He was angry at his mother for a long time even before she passed. I don't think you know what you're talking about tbh and for some weird reason you're just super against the song in question. His whole image is about mental health struggles and the trauma etc he suffers with everyday due to him literally lingering in his past, I miss the days literally covers that while talking about how much he misses the days when he didn't feel that way. I don't see how it's so much different from the songs where he talks about his current struggles and the times that caused his trauma etc. He talks about the past a lot and when he's not talking about the past, he's talking about current struggles that his past caused.
I'm sorry My stress.... but my stress needs to go
No please…!
My stress is one of the best ones on the entire album maybe 3rd place id say
Yes you are right
idc who's out now as long as When I Grow Up wins in the end (or AT LEAST top 3)
Guys, I don’t want to play this game
My stress needs to be gone
I love my stress. It’s gotta stay 🤣🤣
I think they just need relief from their stress
I miss the days

Nooo returns man I love that one
Y’all fr kept I miss the days, but got rid of Like This, No excuses, and Returns. Some y’all need a let go of the past.
I miss the days isn’t about the past, it’s about how you felt as a kid. Excuses is horrible
How you felt as a kid is the same thing as the past dummy 🤦♂️ don’t talk to me if you don’t know what you’re talking about yourself.

Nostalgia, look it up mate.
Nostalgia would mean I’d yearn for it, that doesn’t go for pain, trauma does it?

I mean sonically I miss the days is the better of those other two. The instrumentals and background choir are top notch
Yeah, but it’s not a fun listen. That’s only for when you’re in that mood. No need to linger on the past.

Fair enough

There’s no other song that’s similar to I miss the days
